SEI Network has officially integrated Chainlink Data Streams as its preferred oracle solution, marking a significant advancement toward achieving low-latency market access and mainstream financial adoption. This integration, announced on Wednesday, enables SEI to deliver high-frequency, sub-second latency price data to its decentralized markets, positioning itself to cater to sophisticated institutional users and future tokenization projects.
With the implementation of Chainlink Data Streams, SEI can now supply its extensive user base—comprising over 60 million wallets and leading DeFi protocols—with ultra-reliable, real-time market information. This development addresses ongoing issues of lag and inaccuracies that have traditionally plagued decentralized exchanges and derivatives platforms.
Chainlink Data Streams are now operational on SEI, offering the ecosystem access to real-time data for US equities, US GDP, and over 300 assets. This integration facilitates institutional-grade markets at scale while enabling rapid market movements on SEI.
The increasing institutional demand for compliant and scalable blockchain solutions has surged in 2025, with collaborations between SEI and significant financial players indicating a fast-paced adoption. The partnership with Chainlink allows SEI to deploy essential economic metrics from traditional financial institutions, such as the U.S. Bureau of Economic Analysis, directly onto the blockchain. This connection creates a vital bridge between traditional markets and the growing Web3 sector, granting institutional teams unprecedented access to dependable on-chain data.
SEI’s recent upgrades to its EVM-compatible and parallelized transaction layer have further enhanced execution speed, accommodating DeFi protocols, stablecoins, and tokenized real-world assets like treasuries through Chainlink’s data streams. This setup allows for instantaneous pricing and settlement, achieving block finality in under 400 milliseconds. Daily transaction volumes have exceeded 4 million, pushing total value locked (TVL) and active user numbers to new heights as institutional-grade data services are rolled out.
In addition to speed and accuracy, SEI is utilizing Chainlink’s Cross-Chain Interoperability Protocol (CCIP) to connect with over 60 blockchain networks and more than 140 tokens. This interoperability supports seamless asset and data transfers, crucial for advanced DeFi applications, blockchain gaming, Web3 AI agents, and intricate cross-chain automations. As a result, developers and users can now take advantage of shared liquidity, heightened capital efficiency, and robust security measures, significantly reducing reliance on potentially vulnerable external bridges.
